Register New FCC
Username Account provides guidance on how to create a Username Account for
an individual in the updated FCC Commission Registration System (CORES). Once
an individual has a username, it can be used to link existing or new FCC
Registration Numbers (FRNs) to the Username Account.

Note: Enter a valid email
address in the “Username” and “Confirm Username” fields. This email address
will be used as your username when logging in to the FCC User Registration
System and other systems using an FCC Username Account. Any notifications
relating to your Username Account will be sent to the email address provided.

Note: To ensure the email
address you provide as a username is available, click “Check Availability” to
the right of the “Username” field before entering additional information.

Note: A username can only be
registered to one FCC Username Account. If an email address you wish to use as
the username is already linked to another Username Account, then this email
address can still be included as a Secondary Email.

Note: The Password must be 12
to 15 characters long, cannot include any part of your Username, and must meet
all of the following criteria: 1 lower case letter, 1 upper case letter, 1
number, and 1 punctuation mark/special character.
